Thanks for coming to check out our listing :)

We're pretty relaxed hosts, and as Sydney's #1 hosts we play an active part in the Airbnb community, but we fully appreciate staying with someone else, in their home home, is not for every-one. We get it, our place isn't for everyone. So we won't be offended if you leave this listing (there's plenty of other great Airbnb listings to choose from that don't offer a hosted experience).
As we were among the first Airbnb'ers in Australia (travellers + hosts) we've developed quite an extensive profile based on all the guest questions we've answered over the years.
Reading through the description to the end (hint hint), and the "House Rules", will mean you'll find all the important information you need to make your Sydney Airbnb stay a fantastic one.
Feel free to send us a message with any question you have about us, our home, Pyrmont, Sydney, or Airbnb... We'd love to hear from you! :D

--> THE AVAILABILITY CALENDAR IS ACCURATE - Please only make a reservation request for the exact (and complete) dates that you require. You can use the calendar on our listing to see our availability month by month. If the dates you require are not showing as available on that calendar, it's because we're booked for those dates...

Message us first about your intended arrival time BEFORE you make a reservation request.
--> HAVE A VERIFIED PROFILE - We're much more likely to accept requests from Airbnb'ers with profiles, friends, & recommendations, etc. In the same way you feel more comfortable knowing more about the people you're staying with, we do too. And a profile pic of a cat doesn't really cut it either...

Pyrmont is an inner-city village of Sydney, only about 2kms from the Sydney CBD (Central Business District) / Core, right next door to Darling Harbour and Chinatown.
https://www.airbnb.com.au/locations/sydney/pyrmont
Pyrmont has a relaxed community feel with an inner city vibe.
Pyrmont is only about 2kms (10 - 15 mins walk) from the centre of Sydney with an extensive range of local restaurants, wine bars, and pubs. There's some seriously good baristas and cafes right close to our home (Go and say hi to Damien & Tim at Bar Zini - it's one of our local faves).
There's five star fine dining right through to greasy-spoon takeaways with some of Australia's finest dining restaurants within easy reach.
* Darling Harbour and Cockle Bay
* Exhibition and Convention Centres
* Sydney Fish Markets
* Pyrama Point Park
* Jones Bay Wharf
* The Star (Casino) with Food Halls, Bars, and the Lyric Theatre
* Powerhouse Museum
* National Maritime Museum
Also (back on the food - notice a theme?):
* Two grocery / supermarkets within an easy walk
* Also a great wine-merchant (and craft beers) on the end of our street
* Fantastic deli Signorelli Gastronomia round the corner
* Food stores, grocery, and supermarkets
* Pyrmont Growers Market 1st Saturday monthly; farm direct & artisan foodies.
Pyrmont was once a thriving industrial waterfront / working port area with ship-building, factories and wool-stores. Over the last decade there's been a considerable influx of new residents and commercial / residential development that has transformed the area into a trendy mix of inner city residents and commercial HQs. For example Goo gle has their Sydney office, the "Goo gleplex" just down the road, as is Fairfax Media, NOKIA, and the Seven Network (TV). Media Production houses, boutique cable TV channels, etc.
The UTS (University of Technology) campus, the ABC's Ultimo headquarters (Australia's National Broadcaster), the Sydney Convention Centre, and the Sydney Entertainment Centre, are all within walking distance. Sydney University is about 20 minutes walk away (only 10 mins in a cab or bus).
Eat, drink, and be merry:
Being ex-restaurateurs we'd be more than happy to point you in the right direction for a great meal in Sydney. And there's plenty on tap too. You can't walk more than a block in any direction without walking into the front bar of a local pub, or a wine bar, or a great cafe, or restaurant…
To give you an idea, there's 9 of Sydney's top 10 restaurants within easy walking distance:
* Rockpool
* Momofuku Seiobo
* Quay
* Sepia
* Est
* Rockpool Bar & Grill
* Tetsuya's
* Bentley
* The Bridge Room
And there's plenty of local colour and great tastes whatever your price point or culinary favourite. With a full range of cafes and restaurants in between, right through to the cheap & cheerful Harry's Cafe de Wheels (a late night Sydney institution), Noodle King, and all the vibrant offerings of Chinatown there's no end of options... Modern Australian, Persian, Goan, Japanese, Indonesian, Malay, Italian, Indian... All at our door
Must do's (our local faves) in Pyrmont include:
* Bar Zini
* Gallon
* Blue Eye Dragon
* Le Trader
* Social Brew
* Made in Italy
* Vrindavan Indian Restaurant
* Hamachi-Ya
* Kura
* Hannah's Pies
* Pioik Bakery
* Flying Fish
* Signorelli Gastronomia
* The Apprentice
* Brio
* Yuzu
* Sokyo
* Persian Room
* BLACK by Ezzard
* Cafe Morso
* Little Monk
Get the idea? (and we haven't even hit Chinatown yet!)
Pyrmont is really close to the Sydney CBD and the other inner city villages:
* An easy 10 minute walk into the city centre
* Shopping: QVB, TGV, etc… "Lacroix Sweetie Lacroix"
* Circular Quay, the Sydney Opera House, and BridgeClimb
* King Street Wharf
* Museum of Contemporary Art
* Art Gallery of NSW
* Sydney Museum
* Hyde Park
* Botanic Gardens
* Chinatown, Paddy's Markets, and the Chinese Gardens
* Surry Hills
* Paddington
* The historic Rocks area
* Kings Cross
* CarriageWorks Famers Markets @ Eveleigh every Saturday
* Pyrmont Farmer Markets 1st Saturday of the month

Lovely stay at Vinh and Stuart, we enjoyed the room and it was an excellent location. You can walk to circular quay in 45 minutes from the house.

Ruben2017-01-27T00:00:00Z

We had a great time in Sydney, staying in this convenient location. We could walk into the city, catch public transport close by as well as enjoy the local cafes and restaurants.

Jason2016-01-10T00:00:00Z

Stuart and Vinh were very responsive and easy to communicate with. Check in and out were super convenient and the location was superb! Would definitely recommend a stay here

Colin2016-06-21T00:00:00Z

Ditto everything that has been said here about Vinh and Stuart (and of course Kenji, the best behaved Pom I have every met). They are the consummate hosts and they have a stellar location for exploring Sydney. We shared two fun evening dinners together. The experience was exactly what I was hoping for when I signed up for AirBnB-- truly traveling like a human with all of the personal contact and comfort that implies. I can only hope that the next time my travels take to me Sydney, Vinh and Stuart are still listing their room! Thank you guys, it was a wonderful experience.

David2010-10-12T00:00:00Z

Vinh and Stuart are very good hosts, very nice house, nice breakfast and a very good location. Lovely dog (Kenji). They gave me some nice tips about where to go and whats going on in the area. Can really recommend this place for a quick stop over in Sydney. Kristina

Kristina2011-01-07T00:00:00Z

Vinh and Stuart gave us a great welcome and talked us through everything we needed to know. They also pulled out all the stops to give us the attic room for one night when we contacted them to ask if we could start our stay a day earlier than originally planned. The house is in an amazing position and it really lifted the spirits being able to eat breakfast overlooking Sydney Harbour! Just a short walk away were some good eateries, the Star Casino & food mall, and the Light Railway connecting us to the city. A fabulous place!

Diane2016-03-24T00:00:00Z

Vinh and Stuart were very friendly and welcoming and I had a really nice stay at their place. The house is comfortable and well situated in a nice suburb and in walking distance to the main spots in the city. Would definitely recommend them to friends :-)

Nadja2016-04-09T00:00:00Z

We had a great stay in the fabulous apartament of Vinh and Stuart. Both of them are very friendly and helpful. The apartment is very clean and the bed comfortable. The light rail is just a couple of walking minutes away. The Darling Harbour is ca 15 minutes away. All in all we had a great time in Sydney with special thanks to Vinh and Stuart. We can definitely recommend these hosts!

Lindsay and Minny were very accommodating and generous! They made our stay easy and comfortable especially that it was the first Air BnB experience for us so we weren't sure what to expect but it was lovely and highly recommended.

Ajay2015-06-30T00:00:00Z

Nicole & Andrew2015-11-17T00:00:00Z

It is certainly a BnB with all the little thoughtful trimmings . So close to the ferry and restaurants . Great hosts. Would like to make this a stop off point when in Sydney for a night or two . Parking not a problem . Thanks

Deborah2016-02-24T00:00:00Z

Wonderful place in a picturesque little town just a ferry ride away from the Sydney harbor. I wish they were available for our return trip, we would absolutely stay there again!

L & Lucia2015-08-14T00:00:00Z

I was unable to meet these people and yet I feel I know them from our communications. Sadly, I encountered travel problems and was unable to arrive at the scheduled day. Prior to my intended arrival, I received several emails with tips/tricks/things to do/local travel the list goes on and on. I feel like they gave me so much good information that I was actually there. I look forward to my next opportunity to visit Sydney and I won't even consider another host.

This recently renovated spacious apartment comes fully furnished and is set in the leafy streets of Kirribilli, just a short stroll to gorgeous Sydney Harbour, public transport and restaurants.

One bedroom apartment with all the facilities that you will need for a great stay. There is a queen sized bed in the bedroom and fantastic sofa lounge in the living room that can convert into a double bed.
The serene views of yachts and ferries sailing along in front of the iconic Sydney Opera House can be seen directly from the apartment. And a full panoramic view of the harbour is a short stroll to the Harbour foreshore.

Kirribilli is an amazing suburb of Sydney with it being so close to the events and happenings of the city while being serene and peaceful. There is easy access to the trains and ferries to take you around and a great selection of restaurants and cafes all a short walk away. There are many historic sights nearby and you will be located a few houses away from the residents of Australia's Prime Minister at Kirribilli House.

We had a wonderful holiday at Sydney, the apartment at Kirribilli had a lovely view and it was quite easy to move around. Overall it was nice, just the sofa bed is actually not very comfortable.

Shan2016-07-07T00:00:00Z

Really perfect for stay in Sydney. Close to everything in town either driving, by ferry or even walking (we did cross the bridge by foot). Nice size appartment with all that we needed for our stay. View on the Opera House directly in front of window. I especially appreciate all the info we had received from our host: everything I needed was well described, from how to get things working in the house to how to get around town. Our host was also readily available when I had questions. I think it is an exceptional value for the price. It was my first experience with AirB&B, and frankly, I was a bit fearful of what I would find. With an experience like this one, I will definitely look again into AirB&B for future vacation.

Christian2016-08-23T00:00:00Z

Great flat and excellent communication etc. Beautiful view of the opera house and close to transport and amenities. Hosts were easy to deal with and organised. Great place!

Fantastic apartment. Great views of the Opera house. Exaclty as as pictured.

This is a great place to stay if you want to be in the heart of the city. Easy access to the CBD with public transport, quiet neighbourhood, and great little apartment. We will be returning when we need to be in Sydney again.

Very nice Apartment. Lovely views! Thanks so much. My parents loved to stay at your place

Kevin and Dani2015-05-15T00:00:00Z

We cannot write enough about this place. We had a great experience, both with Hannah and the flat. She was very welcoming, suggested us a lot of nice things to do in the city and waited for us at the apartment. The flat is very beautiful and the views are breathtaking. Having dinner on the balcony was pleasant and relaxing. The flat is spacious, modern and clean. Definitely a good choice. We will come back. Thanks!

Alessandro2015-04-25T00:00:00Z

Fantastic views & great location with everything close by Ferry, train, taxis cafe & restaurants all within an easy walking distance & did I mention the view! Hannah is a excellent host supplying everything you need to enjoy your stay within the apartment. Would be happy to recommend Hannah and Kirribilli water views

Cathy2015-11-28T00:00:00Z

Spectacular location...lovely neighborhood...many delightful shops and restaurants just steps from the door. Great apartment...close to the bridge and opera house! Would definitely come back!

Fred2016-11-02T00:00:00Z

Kirribilli water views is the best place to stay in Sydney with everything being walking distance from the key attractions. The view is lovely from the apartment. I recommend this for a couple; since it is a bit small for a family of 4. Hannah is very communicative and tried to fulfill all our needs in a new city. Its unfortunate that we couldn't meet her.

Ravi Teja2014-10-25T00:00:00Z

What a gorgeous little apartment! This place was perfect for my very first visit to Sydney. Hannah was the perfect host. She supplied milk, coffee, toiletries and even a mobile phone when needed. I highly reccomend this place. Thanks so much

Charlene2014-09-26T00:00:00Z

We had a wonderful stay and mainly sat on the balcony all weekend mesmerised by the view. The little touches like the espresso machine, bottle of champers and chocolates were a great touch, would thoroughly recommend Hannah's apartment to anyone visiting Sydney.

BRIAN2017-05-06T00:00:00Z

Our stay at Kirribilli water views was amazing. The view is absolutely stunning, so we slept with the blinds open and could see the Opera house from the bed. Fantastic location smack bang in the middle of all. Would highly recommend.

Our 2 bedroom apartment is modern, spacious and bright with views of the harbour looking towards Birkenhead Point. Located in the vibrant neighbourhood of Rozelle/ Balmain, it is within walking distance to stylish cafes, popular restaurants, art galleries, but best of all, the neighbourhood has a great community spirit and plenty of local Aussie pubs.
Our place is welcoming, cosy and modern with plenty of natural light. In the morning, we wake up to a soothing harbour view with a cup of tea and during sunset, we get to enjoy a glass of wine with a good book on the balcony.
The balcony is spacious fitted with a brand new outdoor lounge and a fully equipped barbecue set for you to create the perfect Aussie "Barbie" (BBQ).
The master bedroom includes a queen-sized bed and a comfortable double bed in the second bedroom. A single mattress for a 5th guest is also available on request. (*March 2015 Update - Photos of new double bed coming soon)
Fresh towels and linen, and bathroom amenities are provided for each guest in both bathrooms.

Rozelle/ Balmain is one of the best suburbs to live in Sydney. It has character, harbour views, trendy shops and an interesting history. On weekends, Balmain Markets and Rozelle Markets offer an eclectic mix of fashion, food & knick-knacks.

Fantastic location, kids had a ball scootering around the local area. Just what we needed before moving to the US.

Scott2015-09-11T00:00:00Z

Fantastic location. Jono and Di were extremely helpful from the very first contact. The apartment is in close proximity to the city and transport. We found it easy to find our way around Sydney thanks to all the information Jono and Di provided.

robin2016-05-17T00:00:00Z

Two friends and I stayed at Jono & Di's place in Sydney for the best part a week and it was a 5 star experience, from the apartment, the facilities, location and communication. We spent days working out in the gym, having a swim and relaxing in the sauna. Follwed by walks around the marina and down the bay walk. Some nights we made use of their great bbq on the balcony and others we strolled to some great little restaurants just minutes walking distance away. A thoroughly enjoyable experience thank you so much for being such great hosts, I hope to book again in the future!

Simone2015-09-25T00:00:00Z

Walk a few minutes to the local park beside the sea. Amazing view from the balcony. Definitely recommended for anyone wanting to stay nearby Sydney city.

Located near Sydney Harbour, the Opera House, the CBD & much more. Whether in Sydney for business or pleasure you will be well located to see what you want to see and do what you need to do, with the least effort.

Comfortable bedroom on the 2nd floor of an 1840's four storey terrace. Views to Harbour Bridge. Bathroom on next floor up (shared with one other room). Free high speed Wifi. Available next door to the bedroom is a large comfortable sitting room or a smaller sitting room down stairs that can be made available at an extra charge for your private use.

The house is in the historic Rocks precinct of Sydney where the first settlement of Australia occurred. Despite proximity to major tourist destinations it is a quiet neighbourhood.
There are outstanding views of Sydney Harbour from many vantage points and numerous old buildings and other historic features.
It is five minutes bus ride or 15 minutes walk to Sydney CBD. It is also a short walk to Barangaroo, with its new Headland Park opening in July 2015, which will provide extensive recreational opportunities and harbourside walks.

Nice and clean, very convenient location and close to attraction places . Mary was helpful and friendly during my stay in her place, not to forget they have 2 very adorable puppies, really enjoy my stay.

Stephy2015-09-08T00:00:00Z

Our stay in Mary's house was really nice. Mary was welcoming, easy, organised and helpful. The room and bathroom are beautifully designed, really clean, with views of the harbour bridge, and a comfy bed ! It's too bad we booked something early in the next morning and didn't enjoy any longer this bed ! The location also was perfect. We definitely plan on staying here again on future trips to the city!

Jessica2015-06-15T00:00:00Z

The listing is just as described, only better! It's a very nice row house from the 1800s in one of the oldest neighbourhood in sydney. It's quite and overlooking the harbour bridge from the window. The bathroom is one floor up in the attic, but it's nicely done with marble shower floor and a bathtub. Mary is the best! She is very accommodating, and provided us places to store our luggage since we arrived early. Later on she also gives us directions in the city which is really helpful. There is a little cute dog too that licks my leg after i finish a run around the nice neighbourhood. It's a perfect place for a morning run. It's in the center of everything. You can run to the Barangaroo park from the location, or across the sydney bridge to north sydney with the best views, also run cross the quay to the opera house and then the botanic garden, all start from the house with no boring landscape. Anyway, we are so happy we stayed at the place.

Corey2016-03-22T00:00:00Z

Fiona2016-05-30T00:00:00Z

Mary greeted us at the front door by (URL HIDDEN) was nice to meet the person behind the photo :) She was so warm and welcoming, and more than happy to have us in her home. From the moment you step inside this listing has the beautiful feel of a home not just a house. Beautifully decorated with antiques and special pieces no doubt collected through Mary's own travel adventures Mary showed us our bedroom which was on the top floor. The view from the sash windows is truly a stand out. The harbor bridge in all her glory there to welcome you every morning. A superb sitting room flows smoothly from the top staircase complete with an original fireplace, it is a beautiful space to reflect on your bustling day in Sydney. The beautifully restored French doors invite you to enjoy the generous veranda that overlooks the sandstone structures that ooze so much history. The bathroom by no means gets forgotten. It’s beautifully appointed, even down to the high quality towels. Mary has even provided soap, shampoo and conditioner. No need to pack a hairdryer, first aid kit it's all been provided.

Kate2016-03-29T00:00:00Z

Mary and her husband were there to greet me and show me around. The house is a lovely old renovated building and everything was lovely and comfortable. A great location within a very easy walk to the Rocks area for dinner and breakfast. A lovely stay.

Jenny2015-10-21T00:00:00Z

Mary made us very welcomed. A few days before Mary already provided us with a lot of information - very helpful. Although we arrived too early for check-in we received a key and were able to leave our luggage. Our room was very comfortable and we also enjoyed having the separate lounge for our disposal. The house is situated perfectly.

We had a great time staying in CastleCove. Be and her family is super nice. We stayed in CastleCove for two months and we had no problem during our stay and it was pleasant. It was so nice of the Blatmann's family that they invited is for dinner before we left. We are very happy with everything

Staying with Be made us feel at home away from home :) As first timers to Airbnb, Be has really created a commendable first impression. The rustic and natural surrounding of the house gave us, especially my 4 year old a wonderful experience. Definitely a stay for anyone who looks forward to waking up to the beauty of Sydney. Will not hesitate to stay at Be's again should we ever return to Sydney. A warm hostess with a safe environment, one could not ask for more.

My wife and I stayed in Bernadette's home for a while. Bernadette is a very warm-hearted and kind person. She made Chinese tea for us when we arrived her home and prepared breakfast in the next days. Also gave us a lot of useful tips for traveling this city. I hope we can stay there longer next time.

kai2016-02-14T00:00:00Z

Be's place is amazing. Relaxing ambience. Clean room and bathroom. 20 to 25 mins via uber to the city. Bernadette provide us fruits, bread and milk on our first day. Bernadette make us feel at home while in her place. It was a very pleasant stay and will highly recommend it☺.

The place is described as is and is very homey. The whole family is very accommodating and approachable. The location is very convenient as well as the bus stop is just across the street so going to the city is very easy. We would really love to stay there again when we get back. :)

Rona Jasmin2016-09-25T00:00:00Z

Very cosy apartment, perfect location for a relaxing stay! Easy to get to the city centre Be was an excellent host and I would highly recommend staying here.

Lee2016-09-17T00:00:00Z

Your own spacious sun drenched pool side cabana with wonderfully comfy Queen bed, indoor/outdoor living space, ensuite bathroom with beautiful pool . Situated close to several main bus routes to the City (only 10 mins by express bus) the beaches , & walking to pubs and restaurants

Sunny north facing , light, bright and spacious cabana with view of the sparkling pool through large window and louvered glass shutters and bifold doors which open right back onto the outdoor travertine lounging area. During the day you can draw the sheer curtains across (with the doors open or closed) for privacy from the main house and block out blinds on the window and doors offer complete privacy at night. There is an especially comfy Queen size bed, a seating area with a rug and two armchairs and coffee table and a chest of drawers and hanging space for your clothes. Beautiful ensuite bathroom with dual showerhead. Travertine floors in cabana and bathroom keep it cool in summer and have underfloor heating all through for those few chilly winter days. During the summer months you are welcome to use the beautiful mosaic tiled pool to cool off in and relax on the outdoor sun lounging area.

Willoughby is a very popular, established lower north shore suburb close to the city but quiet and spacious. We have more than 20 great restaurants within 10 minutes walk, all cuisines. A couple of pretty good pubs, easy access to both the City and the beaches. In summer Northbridge baths are a popular local harbour side swimming attraction. Chatswood shopping area is a bustling hub of shops, entertainment and restaurants only 5 minutes drive or bus ride away. We have a beautiful park with childrens playground and bbq area right next to us.

I couldn't have asked for a better first Airbnb experience! My two year-old and I have just returned from staying here. The cabana is lovely - immaculately clean and very comfortable. It is situated in an extremely quiet street in Willoughby near a great park/shops and easy bus link into the City. Ellie and Dave were very welcoming and thoughtful.. they had even put a teddy and children's books in the room for my little girl. Thank you so much! I would highly recommend this great room.

Vanessa2015-08-29T00:00:00Z

Ellie and David made us very welcome and were helpful and obliging. Their Cabana was spacious, well appointed and very clean. This is a really nice suburban neighbourhood and is walking distance to shops, cafes, transport and parks. The pool was a real bonus on the hot days while we were there.

William2015-12-06T00:00:00Z

I loved staying at Ellie's place. The cabana had everything that I needed and Ellie couldn't do enough for me. The address is central to good transport and the neighbourhood is safe. It was an oasis of tranquility for me and I hope to stay there again. Thanks, Ellie!

Rosemarie2017-04-21T00:00:00Z

The experience for the 3 nights we stayed were incredible. Both the bedroom and the bathroom were both spotlessly clean. Ellie was very kind and helped us out with any questions we had. Very comfortable stay!!

Angela2015-12-01T00:00:00Z

Ellie and David are great hosts. They are very nice. The cabana is a great place to stay at. Thanks

Great place to stay Great Pool Great Host

Damian2016-10-22T00:00:00Z

This was great value, and very comfortable. Ellie and David really made an effort to make sure I felt happy there, they were a lovely couple and Chloe the dog was adorable. I really enjoyed having an independent entrance, so I could come and go without disturbing the family. They had a lovely stone floor, which combined with a fan kept the room very cool even on a hot day. I slept really well there (even better than at home!) With a short walk to transport, cafes etc and close to my family, it was a perfect place to base myself from. Plus there was a very nice park at the end of the street to go for a morning stroll, so I felt great being able to get up and go for a walk. I look forward to staying again on my next visit to Sydney.

Suzanne2015-10-20T00:00:00Z

I enjoyed my stay in the Cabana! Peaceful suburb. The Cabana was clean, tidy and functional. Ellie was lovely. Thank you

Peter2016-05-22T00:00:00Z

Margie and her family were fantastic, friendly people, caring of your needs and checking your day's plans, offering advices. They're always keen on having a chat. Location was fantastic, close to city and Chatswood, offering food options and conveniences just a short walk away. Room was very well designed, spacious (photos don't do justice), yet comfy and had a study if work needs to be done. I love those adjustable louvres as you could control the amount of natural daylight flowing in. I'll be most keen to come back to this "home away from home" abode next time I am in Sydney.

Julien2014-10-23T00:00:00Z

Margie made us feel very welcome and we really enjoyed our stay. The room and bathroom were spotless and it was a great location. We really enjoyed the home made muesli for breakfast.

David2016-11-12T00:00:00Z

Margie and Wayne made us feel very welcome and their accommodation was exactly as you see in the photos. What we loved was the fantastic quiet location, the easy parking for our car and our delightful room. We will be sure to stay again without a doubt and would thoroughly recommend this accommodation to anyone. Thank you again Margie and Wayne for your hospitality and attention to detail in every area.

Anmaree2016-07-17T00:00:00Z

This place was amazing. Margie was very welcoming and the breakfast was quite filling. She was informative and the bedroom/bathroom was spacious and very comfortable. An extremely beautiful home. We were very happy we got to stay :)

Stephanie2016-12-22T00:00:00Z

Margie and Wayne's place is fantastic; the room is very cosy and clean. The house is in a great location close to public transport to go to the city, Chatswood and other lower north shore suburbs. The hosts are super friendly, made me feel at home. I recommend this place to anyone visiting Sydney, it is a hidden gem that must not be missed. La casa de Margie y Wayne esta fantástica, la habitación es muy cómoda y limpia. La casa se encuentra en una buena ubicación con acceso rápido a transporte público para ir a la ciudad u otros suburbios del norte de la ciudad. Los anfitriones son muy amigables y me hicieron sentir como si estuviera en casa. Recomiendo ampliamente quedarse en este lugar a cualquier persona visitando Sídney, es definitivamente un tesoro escondido que no se deben perder.

Mario2017-04-15T00:00:00Z

Margie and Wayne's accommodation was outstanding! You felt incredibly welcome in their lovely home and the room was exceptional in terms of comfort and value. Willoughby is also a lovely, quiet area so needless to say, I would highly recommend a stay. Thank you Wayne and Margie!

Nicolette2017-05-21T00:00:00Z

Margie's place is an excellent place to stay in. My partner and i stayed for 5 days and 4 nights and we can't help but rave about their place. The place looks so much better in person. Margie and her family we're very warm and welcoming. The dog was so cute and added an extra charm to the place. We're definitely staying here next time we book a flight to Sydney. Thanks ❤️❤️❤️❤️ P.S. the breakfast was sooo healthy and delicious as well. We highly recommend this place. - Joe and Larry from Auckland, New Zealand

The apartment is downstairs from the main house. It is recently renovated and fully self-contained. Contact host for easy access to shared laundry. It is private with own entrance. It has amazing bush land views all within an easy walk to public transport. It is close to restaurants, cafes and supermarkets. Located on a quiet street in a beautiful Sydney suburb. It is accessible to Sydney harbour, Balmoral beach, Taronga zoo, Sydney city, Opera House and northern beaches to name a few.

Our apartment is light-filled and airy with garden and bush views from all windows. It is recently renovated and comfortable. This luxury little apartment offers a beautiful natural and quiet escape. There is also a generous size swimming pool, BBQ area and garden for guests to enjoy. Breakfast supplies are provided including fruit, yogurt, cereal, bread, eggs and bacon

Amazing bushland suburb with village feel, close to everything. Turn right out the gate and there is a twenty minute walk through the local bush to Sydney harbour. Turn left and walk for fifteen to twenty minutes to numerous and varied restaurants and shops.

We had a great time at Peta & Grahams property. It is a very comfortable flat and quite cool and airy albeit we had very high temperatures. Absolutely everything we needed (and more). Would highly recommend the s accomodation.

Lynn2017-01-28T00:00:00Z

Peta and Graham were amazing, was my first Airbnb experience and was a little hesitant however they exceeded my expectations and it is a truly peaceful and tranquil place and yet still so close to the city and even a fridge and cupboard full of food! Everything was immaculate in terms of cleanliness and both Peta and Graham were very friendly and accommodating. Only side note would be that uber and taxis can add up if you're using them especially within a surcharge time, would advise to use sparingly and walk up the road to the bus stop and plan you're day ahead in the city before you leave. Apart from that everything was perfect and can't wait to return!

Chris2017-03-06T00:00:00Z

Fantastic place to stay, highly recommend. :)

Em2017-04-15T00:00:00Z

I book this apartment for my parents while I was in Finland my self. And right I way after my mother and Dad arrived this place my mother Send me a Text sms, Saying: "this is one of the best they have ever been in so far with most welcoming feeling" :) + All communication With Peta & Graham was great all the time. Greetings from Funland! ;)

Antti2016-11-04T00:00:00Z

I very much enjoyed my stay from the moment arrived. The apartment is beautifully presented and feels very peaceful. The view of the surrounding trees is really lovely. The kitchen is very user friendly and you have everything you need. The hosts are very warm and friendly and take care to ensure you are very comfortable and well provided for.

Danielle2016-12-12T00:00:00Z

We needed some overflow accommodation close to our home from some family. This was perfect. Clean, well presented, pleasant, helpful hosts, exactly as described and as per the photos. We would use it again.

Ross2016-09-11T00:00:00Z

Very comfortable stay in a lovely location. Peta and Graham provided a great selection of breakfast offerings complete with fresh fruit, milk and bread. And the pantry is well stocked with all those little items you need when away from home. The apartment has a private entrance so you can come and go as you please without disturbing others. And with the house backing onto the creek it couldn't be more peaceful. Highly recommended!

Frank2016-09-02T00:00:00Z

Peta and Graham were friendly, polite and generous with their time. Even before arriving to stay they had asked if I needed some special food stuffs. They are lovely people. The self contained apartment is perfect for a couple seeking to get away into a leafy private space for a variety of reasons.
